ASSEMBLY

Assembly requires two people. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Assembly requires the included alien wrench and your own phillips screwdriver (]_:3===_.

Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal

conditior_ and does not affect treadmill performance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off

the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.

With the help of a second person, carefully raise the treadmill to the upright position.

If there are two Screws (80) in each Extension Leg (102), remove them. These Screws will be used in as-

sembly step 2. White a second person tips the treadmill to one side

and holds it, insert one of the Extension Legs (102) into the treadmill as shown. Make sure that the Extension

Leg is turned so the Base Pad (99) is on the bottom. Next, tip the treadmill to the other side and insert the

other Extension Leg (not shown) in the same way. Lower the side of the treadmill so that both Extension Legs

(102) are resting flat on the floor. With the help of a second person, carefully lower the

treadmill frame and then tip the Uprights (69) down as shown. Make sure that the Extension Legs (102) re-

main in the Uprights.

Attach each Extension Leg (102) with two Screws (80) as shown.

With the help of a second person, carefully tip the

Uprights (69) back to the vertical position.

Have a second person hold the Handrails (66) near the Uprights (69) as shown. Connect the Upright Wire Harness (98) to the wires extending from the right

Handrail. Insert the Wires under the Console Base (81).

4. Insert two Handrail Bolts (78) with Handrail Washers (77) and Handrail Bushings (75) into the right Upright

(69) and the right Handrail Spacer (65) as shown. Next, thread the Handrail Bolts into the right Handrail (66). Do

not tighten the Handrail Bolts yet.

Attach the left Handrail (not shown) in the same way. Tighten all four Handrail Bolts (78).

scribed below.

Refer to assembly step 2. Lower the treadmill frame and the Uprights (69) as shown. If the left foot of the Endcap (58) was off the ground, remove the two Base Pads (99) from the right Upright (69). Attach the in- cluded thick base pads to the Upright. If the right side of the Endcap was off the ground, attach the thick base pads to the left Upright.

Note: If either side of the Endcap (58) lifts off the floor

when the treadmill is used, attach the thick base pads as described.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PERFORMANT LUBE TM WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with PERFORMANT LUBE TM, a high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other

substances to the walking belt or the walking plat- form. They will deteriorate the walking belt and

cause excessive wear,

electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge

protector, and plug the surge protector into an ap- propriate outlet that is properly installed and

grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,

and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-

trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that

looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be used to connect the surge protector to a 2-pole recep-

tacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded out- let is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a

properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed by a qualified electrician.

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home's power. Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can re- sult from weather conditions or from other appliances

being turned on or off.

To decrease the pos-

sibility of your tread- mill being damaged, always use a surge protector (not in-

eluded) with your treadmill.

Surge protectors are sold at most hardware

stores and department stores. Use only a UL-

listed surge protector, rated at 15 amps, with a

14-gauge cord of five

feet or less in length.

This product must be grounded. If it should

malfunction or break down, grounding pro-

vides a path of least re- sistance for electric cur-

rent to reduce the risk of

The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent

ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.

Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place

by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box

covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec- trician to determine if the outlet box cover is

grounded before using an adapter.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers an impressive selection

of features to help you get the most from your exercise. When the console is in the manual mode, the speed

and incline of the treadmill can be changed with a touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will provide

continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the built-in pulse sensor.

Five preset workout programs are also offered. Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill to give you an effective workout. The included hand weights can be used to add upper-body exercise to your workouts as well. You can even create your own custom workout programs and store them in

memory for future use.

In addition, the console offers a fitness test program

that measures your relative fitness level and a pulse- driven program that automatically adjusts the speed

and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near

a target level during your workout. Note: The fitness

test program and the pulse-driven program require the

use of an optional chest pulse sensor (see page 24).

The console also features new iFit.com interactive tech-

nology. IFit.com technology is like having a personal trainer right in your home. Using the included audio

cable, you can connect the treadmill to your home stereo, portable stereo, or computer and play special

iFit.com CD programs (CD's are available separately). IFit.com CD programs automatically control the speed

and incline of the treadmill as a personal trainer guides you through every step of your workout. High-energy music provides added motivation. Each CD features two programs designed by certified personal trainers.

In addition, you can connect the treadmill to your VCR and TV and play iFit.ccm video programs (videocas-

settes are available separately). Video programs offer the same benefits as iFit.com CD programs, but add the excitement of working out with a class and an

instructor--the hottest new trend at health clubs.

With the treadmill connected to your computer, you can also go to our new internet site at www.iFit.com and access basic programs, audio programs, and video programs directly from the internet. And by

adding an optional upgrade module to the treadmill, you can use virtually endless features from cur internet

site. See www.iFit.com for complete details.

To purchase iFit.com CD's or videocassettes or an

optional upgrade module, call toll-free 1-800-735-0768. See page 24 for information about other accessories that will help you get even more from your exercise.
